Black Walnut Mallet

[Douglas Robinson]

I used up some scrap pieces of black walnut I got a while back from jeff and made the following wooden mallet today when I got back from Klingspor. I hope to turn a round one soon.

Nice job Doug. I'd hate to be on the business end of that!

Wow that could coax a glue-up into submission. That's not a noggin' knocker, it's a noggin' flattener:new_shock

Yep, a definitely adequate thumper:wsmile:

Thats a fine looking mallet indeed! :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

Hey Doug, that looks like it will do a good job...

How did you connect the handle to the head?

Good job!

 

[Travis Porter]

Nice! I'm looking forward to the time when I get to play in the shop again. :-(

That's a serious lookin' "Clock cleaner" Doug! When you turn the round one I'll take that ol' square one off your hands. We don't want you clutterin' up your shop with unused goods....:rotflm:

The head is made from 3 1 inch thick sections. The middle section is split into two witht he sides at a slight angle. The hanlde is split and a wedge in the head keeps it together.
